problem #2

300C 8-cyl

While driving I smelled a "sweet odor" & noticed had risen & all of a sud the heat indicator had risen & all of a sudden the car stopped running. I sat for 20 minutes & attempted to start again to no avail. I waited an hour, ntried again & no luck. So I left the car & on Monday contacted the service station who inspected the car & informed me it had thrown a piston & my whole motor would need to be repaired or replaced. Charge was $3104.94 + car rental. I had an extended warranty which I purchased when I bought the car & it expired at 60,000 miles. I ask Chrysler motor co if they know of any reason this would occur & if they would grant any portion of this expense? thank you

Just fueled the car and leaving the service station and the car stalled. Vehicle kept stalling as I attempted to drive it and shut off in the middle of traffic. Had to be towed. Also, each time I have filled the car up since, the same thing happens. The car sputters, shuts down. Once restarted I have to rev the gas and blow the engine for several minutes to get the gas flowing in a manner to drive the vehicle.
